Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The globe is about a 1/8 thick (!) layer of plastic, rather than cardboard. I had thought that the light in question would shine through the stars, however the globe is solid, with no holes. There are however two layers to the plastic, the outer one shows the astronomical designations and constellations, including the milky way. The inner layer is painted with classically styled pictures of the creatures/people of the constellations. When the light is off it is a smooth blue star globe, with just the astronomical markings. When the light is lit, the inner pictures shine through and overlay, showing the more mythical interpretations of the constellations.
The globe is very solid and seems sturdy, the bracketing frame is simple plastic and may not hold up as well. The globe does turn, but somewhat stiffly.
I'm bit disappointed that the light doesn't shine out of the stars, I'm considering drilling out the holes for the stars, so we can use it as a constellation projector too.
